Abstract

Research and development of computer-based assessment is carried out to overcome the shortcomings of conventional paper-based assessment. Development is carried out by focusing on the use of isomorphic questions and improvement programs. This computer-based assessment was developed with two levels of questions. At each level there are isomorphic questions that are used as a reference in providing feedback to students about their concepts understanding. At each level there is also video material that can be used as a source of student learning before students utilize the remedial program. This computer-based assessment has been tested on 31 third-year undergraduate students in Physics Education, Universitas Negeri Malang. The results of media and material validation and the results of limited trials indicate that the computer-based assessment produced is feasible to be applied in learning.

Abstract

Heat Conduction is a scientific concept that related to daily life. Learning about heat conduction is usually only discussed at the macroscopic level, whereas at the sub-microscopic level never be a concern from elementary students until to the teachers. This study aims to identify the effect of using Conceptual Change Text on the teacher's representation on the  heat conduction concept. A quasi-experimental method using a one-group pretest-posttest design was used in this study. The instrument was a diagnostic test, the data were analyzed from the comparison of participants' representations (5 elementary teachers) before and after treatment, the results showed that teacher representation was better after treatment. This research also reinforces that the representation of the sub-microscopic level is an important aspect of the learning process. Science learning needs to be developed and equipped up to the sub-microscopic level both verbal or visual to make science lessons more meaningful and easily understood by students.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to compare the misconceptions of secondary school students (junior and senior high school) and pre-service physics teachers about simple electrical circuits.  The study involved 92 people consisting of 30 junior high school students, 32 senior high school students, and 30 pre-service physics teachers. The diagnostic misconception instrument was adapted from the Simple Electric Circuits Diagnostic Test (SECDT). Data were analyzed by descriptive and inferential analysis. The results of the study indicated that there are 11 misconceptions types that the student had. The clashing current is a type of misconception that is most often found both in high school students and in pre-service teacher. The inferential test showed that there were significant differences of misconception scores among junior high school students, senior high school students, and pre-service physics teachers (KW=12,689, df=2, p 0.05). Teachers could use the misconception profile as a consideration in planning classroom instruction.
